The Senate is divided over whether to release a House investigation report on former Rep. Matt Gaetz, who resigned last week amid allegations of misconduct. His resignation ended the House Ethics Committee's inquiry but raised questions about the report's findings. President-elect Donald Trump is urging Republicans to confirm Gaetz as attorney general despite the ongoing controversy. Some senators express willingness to hear Gaetz's side, while House leaders oppose releasing the report. The House Ethics Committee will meet privately to discuss its findings. There are concerns about unauthorized access to confidential testimony related to Gaetz's case, but the details remain undisclosed.
